Maybe you sit those players, Then maybe they listen. Just a thought !

The leading point scorer on Huntington has more assists than goals. The leading goal scorer is on attack so I don't think the problem is getting the ball off the draw and going to goal. Whoever said that this is a problem does not know what they are talking about.

Virtually every coach in HS lax is coaching travel teams, that's what the entire yj model is based on and now the other clubs are trying to do the same

So you obviously are involved in the program and come on here stating these accusations and do nothing about it? What a joke you are!! Coming on here constantly bitching about it does nothing but make you look like a weakling. Go make a difference.

Hey Kathy, all the kids who you said were so selfish had 14 assists on 16 goals today? Are they selfish or are you just plain wrong?

Did not see the game but 14 legit aassists on 16 goals in any girls game is highly uunlikely.Its not hockey. I have seen newsday stats thashow teams with more assists than goals, did not think that was possible

Internet tough girl huh. Go see them face to face coward.

You must be the teams official stat ladder, oops, I mean keeper.

Maybe they got the message?

Watched HS girls game the other day. Is it me or am I teaching my young daughter the wrong thing about sports ethics...should I be teaching them to take extra steps after whistle, take dives any chance they get and as soon as refs turn their backs to throw their sticks about 10 yards to gain advantage on the field? Is this how the sport is played now?

Appears you have little knowledge of the situation. There are 4 goalies at Huntington. 3 YJ, 1 Elevate. 2 of YJ are D1 commits. 1 Elevate D1 commit. Second YJ D1 commit and third YJ goalie have not played 1 minute. Here is one cent back

It often is, and by some teams/clubs more than others. If the coaches encourage it, or turn a blind eye, and the refs don't see it or don't choose to address it, then it happens and continues to happen.

I'm sure she's not on boc. If so, I am sure she will be able to figure out who you are.

Funny thing about all you stat hounds, go look at the list of all stat leaders on msg. The entire first page of leaders all come from weak programs. Seriously only one or two of the top 30 are from merely decent teams. And just about none from all the top programs. I guess if you want to be the stat standout player, move to a weak school district where you are a shark playing in a puddle.

Thanks captain obvious. You think it has anything to do with the stronger programs having multiple options on offense . Those kids who are on weak programs should stop scoring goals so you will not come on this site to tear them apart or maybe if you want to be a non standout player move to a strong school district where you can be a guppy playing in the ocean.We get it , your kid is better than all those stat leaders but no one notices because the team she plays on is so tremendous she barely contributes to the teams success and it drives you crazy. Which are those top programs that none of the kids are near the top of the stats list?

Thank you. Someone finally put this 98han5jackass in their place!!! These stat leader's did not pick their town. Some teams have many options and some have few.Stop beating up the ones producing in what ever program they are in!!!

When you are up by 10, tell your daughter to pass the ball.

Tell your daughter to learn how to catch

I'm going to agree with that. I see far too many box scores where a team wins by double digits, or close to, and one girl has nearly double digit goals. Completely unnecessary for the win, only necessary for the ego. I would have no prob with a girl scoring 8, 9, 10 goals herself if the final score is close. Then those goals are needed. But in a blowout there is no reason.

And furthermore, I don't want to hear, "It's her turn," to justify running up her stats. That's just BS.

Mt Sinai! Balanced team that takes their studs out early.

The string programs have good coaches who would not allow the one player run UPS.

Not in my experience, but it could be different for each team they play. Although I will say I never see any completely unbalanced running up of the score from them either.

Mt. Sinai doesn't take their studs out. They just slow the game down in the second half when they have a lead. They have done it numerous times this season. It's actually impressive to watch them work the ball around looking for the perfect shot. Can't see anyone in C beating them in Suffolk.

Unlike swr who has no mercy on Mercy. But they lose to anyone who is good.

Swr played their starting GOALIE on attack, pulled starters in 1st half, played all players, including two who never played the game before this year, and had all experienced kids use opposite hand. What else are you supposed to do? Also, don't the kids who are new to the game or never play get a chance to compete too?

Good to see the kids passing , much better

I saw them play miller place and # 4 was out early and only scored 1 goal. Seemed like she could score as many as she wanted. But u r right. They worked the ball to everyone.

Guess it all depends on the game!!

Just would like to end on a positive note...kudos to the West Islip coach for not running up the score, subbing his players, and giving the weaker team a chance to feel positive about the game. We should all take a lesson from them!

Good for you guys, we are at a school that regardless of score only certain kids get to score. Kids are quitting in droves even mid season

What school ?

Quitting mid-season says more about the kids than the coach. Since when did a coach have to be everyone's friend. I never really liked most of my coaches, they constantly tell you what you are doing wrong, but I would never quit because of it. I don't know the exact situation but sounds like kids being brats more then some evil coach.

I agree life is tough and you should stick it out but if you can't work the bench in when you are up by double digits that's on the coach and the program. What's the point of practicing hard if you never get a chance in a game? Keep gearing the program towards the top handful and eventually that's all that will be left!

WOW! only got two against West Babylon. I guess you can't play Easthampton every game. WB girl had no problem finding the net.

Looks like EI will not make the playoffs.

Damn you kill the kid when she scores a lot and you kill her when she doesn't. Can't have it both ways!! She's a great player and I hope she scores 15 next game!!!!

Your kidding right? Calling out a HS kid? And someone you know well at that. Ridiculous.

Hop you are right. I was out of line for mentioning her name. I do apologize.
